Actually, when I took another look at the manual, it says: Starting with MySQL Version 4.0.4, you can also perform UPDATE operations that cover multiple tables: UPDATE items,month SET items.price=month.price WHERE items.id=month.id; So it is even newer than 4.0.1 -----Original Message----- From: Andrew McCombe [mailto:andrew@euperia.com] Sent: 1. júlí 2003 23:33 To: ofjord@simnet.is Subject: Re: [PHP] need help w/ sql query - update and select at once > Theoretically, you should be able to do a multi-table update since MYSQL > 3.23, like this: > > UPDATE tablename, tablename2 SET tablename.field1 = 'yes' WHERE > tablename.userid = tablename2.userid; > > I haven't tested it, though. > Sorry, no you can't do this in 3.23.*. MySQL > 4.01 supports this. Regards Andrew
